Following up on the superb kitchen cabinet remodel work that Next Level Custom Woodworking did for…read moreus a number of years ago, my wife and I recently commissioned them to reimagine our dated family room mantle and entertainment wall. The project scope included reengineering our old, stucco fireplace mantle and adding complementary wall paneling. The team also installed crown molding throughout our family room and kitchen spaces and new baseboard throughout our first floor. Using a single concept image that my wife and I had tucked away a while back, Brandon and his extremely talented carpentry specialist, Jesse, collaborated with us to adapt those design concepts to our family room and created a space with which we are extremely happy. We truly appreciated their frequent check-ins to align on design concept options for the finish work and their meticulous attention to detail throughout the project, which included the tireless efforts of painting specialist, Ted. We had long wanted this upgrade to our most frequently used space in our home and we are as happy with this project outcome as we were with the prior kitchen cabinet project. If you are looking for a creative and accomplished woodworking contractor to help bring your remodel visions to life, my wife and I strongly encourage you include Next Level Custom Woodworking in your bid list. We certainly will be using them again as we move to the next phase of our home remodel efforts in the coming months.

Brandon was very easy to communicate with over the phone and by text and he came to the house multiple times to verify measurements before the actual install. He also had us over at his shop to confirm materials and paint/stain color. Fun to see the working space and tools! Did not get any competing quotes but based on the scope of this custom build and what I know about craftsmanship hourly rates I think the price was a good value. We will definitely be contacting Brandon for future projects!

It is very obvious from the unsatisfactory appearance that your employee lied to me and never applied the primer. He also agreed to use fiberglass tape because paper drywall tape has a tendency to bubble if not properly applied, which it has now. Moreover, the cause for drywall tape bubbling or cracking is almost always not enough mud under the tape or too much mud on top. This was not the professional job I expected.

Met with Benito today, who did a perfect job of resetting the leaky toilet. A pretty simple job, but done professionally and perfectly I'm an engineer and it was to my high standards. Very easy to work with, and left the site perfectly clean. Benito is now on my short list for future home maintenance needs, replacing who I had used in the past.

They were even able to get the job done on my not so flexible schedule. Top notch team and people over at Rob's Odd Jobs. I look forward to our next project together! Thank you for doing quality work!

I asked them if I should move on and still wouldn't receive a "yes, we're too busy" or "your job isn't big enough". It's a shame because I was willing to pay a premium and add additional projects to make this worthwhile. But we never got to that point due to their lack of response.

He and his crew arrived Friday, demo'd my old fence, and quickly got cracking on building me a new one. They went to multiple vendors to get me the best price on lumber. They were fast, courteous, and did a great job overcoming all sorts of hurdles including working around water mains and giant tree roots. Erik is a very knowledgable guy and takes a lot of pride in his work. If something didn't go exactly as he planned, he was quick to solve the problem and keep at it until it met his satisfaction. He rolled with all of my requests and was very patient in addressing my questions. Although specializing in cabinetry, it sounds as though Erik and his crew do just about everything from foundation work to painting and general construction. I highly recommend giving them a call. I'm looking forward to having Erik back for a bunch of work around the property.

This is my very first Yelp review, and I truly felt this business deserved an excellent one. All…read morethe positive reviews you see are absolutely accurate. Professionalism: The team at Your Carpenter Friend was professional, meticulous, and clean, and they did an excellent job repairing dry rot around our home. They were so good that we've already recommended them to a couple of friends, and I hope they get the opportunity to work with them as well. Licensed: Yes Pricing: Pricing was reasonable and on par with other vendors we considered. Recommendation: Yes--100% recommend them. We plan to hire them again next year for additional work in the spring/summer, and I'll be happy to update this review then. Skill: They are truly skilled carpenters (Brendan, Zach, and Sam), which feels rare these days. While I don't do woodworking myself, I can certainly recognize and appreciate quality craftsmanship. In several areas, Zach and Sam came up with creative solutions to ensure water would not sit on the wood. They also discovered additional dry rot during the project and always consulted with us and obtained approval before proceeding. They worked non-stop--even in the cold! Work: I initially contacted Brendan for a mix of handyman work along with exterior dry rot repairs. He was honest and upfront about what could realistically be done during the dry season, so we decided to focus solely on the dry rot repairs. As it turned out, Brendan is a former termite inspector--perfect for anyone needing dry rot repair. They worked at our home for 3 days. There was one small area that wasn't painted on one side; once we brought it to his attention, Brendan came back the very next day to fix it. Their goal is clearly to make the customer happy, within reason. BTW -- he also does decks. Thank you, Brendan & Team!

Brendan came out to assess the project and provided a fair and detailed estimate within two days. He answered my questions clearly and honestly, and didn't try to upsell me on other potential work that I didn't ask for. Once I accepted his estimate, he scheduled the job in a very timely manner. He and his guys completed the job on schedule and on budget, which sadly seems like a rarity these days. I greatly appreciate Brendan's communication style and professionalism, as well as the high quality of the work he performed. I am planning another home exterior project next spring and would not hesitate to use this company for the carpentry work.
